EARLY LITERACY PROGRAM

MEAC is partnering with parentchild+ to provide early literacy skills to children in our community even before they reach preschool!

what is parentchild+?

ParentChild+ is a unique early literacy program, working with children as young as 16 months and up to four years of age. This program aims to ensure that our children have equal possibilities from the start.

HOw does it work?

Early learning specialists work with children and their parents in the home or with home-based childcare providers to ensure school readiness by supporting healthy development and building social-emotional, cognitive, and early literacy skills through reading, conversation, and play.

The program provides visits with an Early Learning Specialist twice weekly, and participants will acquire a library of high-quality books and educational toys, as well as curricular guide sheets with tips on vocabulary-building, engaging conversation, skill development, social-emotional development, and imaginative play.

Children have 1,800 days from birth to the start of kindergarten. Each of these days is critical to their school readiness and success. Together, we are inspired by the thought that, the more we work now to level the playing field, the closer we get to an equitable future for all children.
